Summa time!

These beachy themed cupcakes were made for loyal customer Cathie for her block party today. She always gives me great themes to work with and a pleasure to bake for. Today, besides the warm welcome I always get when I arrive with cupcakes, she gave me a little homemade picture holder. I put my business card in it for now. How adorable is that and it made me feel very special. Thank you so much Cathie!!

Avengers!!

These Avengers cupcakes were made for my friend Amanda who is celebrating her son's 4th birthday today! I arrived to find the whole family wearing their Avengers tee shirts. Such an adorable family! I have to admit that I am not very knowledgeable about the Avenger characters so thanks to my husband, I didn't include heroes like Spiderman or Batman here. I love working on themes especially for kids that you just won't find at your local bakery. Thank you to Amanda who always has faith in me and a very HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY to Logan who is growing up way too fast!

A "Tiffany's" Themed Shower!

Late to post. These vanilla cupcakes were made for my friend Melissa for her sister's Tiffany themed shower. I love the way the little white bows came out and how everyone instantly knows the iconic Tiffany blue color. I really hope they were a hit and that everyone enjoyed them!

Cupcakes for Cathie!

Cathie orders cupcakes from me more frequently than any other customer. They are almost always for her girls but this order was finally for herself! Cathie's birthday is tomorrow and she gave me free reign on the toppers. I was very happy to make these for Cathie for her weekend celebration! Thank you for your support and I hope you have a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Cupcakes ordered during Labor!

Yes, you read that correctly. While my repeat customer Faviola was in labor for the birth of her daughter, she contacted me and ordered cupcakes. I was taken back by her timing and flattered at the same time. Her mommy instincts were already kicking in for when visitors come to see Mommy and newborn! I heard back from Faviola after baby arrived and I can report they are doing great! I know a dozen or so visitors that are going to be sweetly surprised too!

May the 40th Be With You!

Christine planned every little detail for her husband Mike's 40th SURPRISE Birthday Bash! She contacted me and we exchanged several Star Wars themed cupcake pictures and she loved Gem's Treasures design. Although I have done Stars Wars theme in the past, this was more of a graphic design and I loved this, especially for an adult. Christine ordered these very cool labels for the individual boxes each guest received as a party favor. I just love when my boxes are "dressed up!" These vanilla cupcakes were sure to put a smile on everyone's faces and already got lots of praise before I was even able to post this on the blog. I really enjoy working with customers that are enthusiastic and flexible. Happy Birthday Mike! I'm sure your celebration was Out of This World!!

Baby Bory is on the Way!

Cathy contacted me way before my busy Communion season to order these stork themed cupcakes for a Baby Shower. I knew we had plenty of time and that the date she needed was available but I needed to get through the busy season and Cathy was patiently waiting for me to go over ideas. We narrowed it down to this adorable design by Edible Details. The baby's gender is still a surprise so she selected the neutral colors and asked that I detail the baby's last name on the stork's bundle. I just love these so much! Individually packaged cupcakes are a bit more work but when the design comes together so nicely, it really was such a pleasure! I hope the Bory family enjoy these chocolate chip cupcakes!
